Chapter 106 The third quarter of the enemy Liu De

Before setting off from Nanjing, Zhu Yuanzhang kept thinking in his mind, how is that Liu De doing now? The scene of begging for land at Liu De's house was the greatest shame in Zhu Yuanzhang's life. Among the more than twenty households just now, he noticed Liu De.Liu De, who was strong and rich back then, is now very old.In the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang at that time, Liu De was the most successful person in the village, with every gesture and style, which made Zhu Yuanzhang very awed.Now it seems that he is just an old and wretched country old man who has never seen the world. Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang is now King Wu, Liu De felt uneasy.Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the village again. He hid at home and dared not go out.

Zhu Yuanzhang sent someone to call him over.Everyone's heart tightened.No one knows what will happen next.And Zhu Yuanzhang has made a living killing people these years. Liu De knelt down in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, kowtowing and muttering in his mouth: Lord, please be kind, forgive me for being so young that I didn't know Mount Tai!Poor little one is getting old now! Zhu Yuanzhang stepped forward, pulled him up from the ground, and said: Don't be afraid.I don't care about what happened back then. "You don't need to ask about this eternal love. When I was poor, how would you know that I am the son of heaven today!" (Volume 1 of "Guoyan") It is human nature to dislike the poor and love the rich. I don't care about you.How did you know at that time that I would be the emperor!At the same time, it was announced that Liu De would be given thirty hectares of land.

Everyone present was moved by Zhu Yuanzhang's tolerance and generosity.The daily life commentary hurriedly recorded this passage, he knew that this would surely become a good story in history. In fact, every move and every word at this moment was planned by Zhu Yuanzhang before he left Nanjing. Zhu Yuanzhang imitated Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and admired Liu Bang in everything, but he always disapproved of Liu Bang's "Gengjiehou". People who start from humble beginnings always have similar embarrassments.When he was young, Liu Bang liked to take wine and meat friends to his brother-in-law's house to eat and drink, drinking and bragging.After a long time, my sister-in-law will inevitably be unwilling.One day, Liu Bang and a group of little brothers walked into the house, but heard the sound of his sister-in-law taking a spatula to shovel the pot, which meant to tell him that there was no food in the pot, so go elsewhere and make Liu Bang embarrassed There is no place to put it, and the "resentment against the cauldron" has been left since then.After becoming the emperor, he made his close relatives kings and marquises, but the only one who did not make his eldest brother and sister-in-law's only son Liu Xin.It wasn't until the Supreme Emperor Liu Rui personally interceded that Liu Bang decided to make him a Marquis, but when he made the decree, he awarded him a harsh title: "Gengjiehou". "Gengjie" means "the rice is gone".

Zhu Yuanzhang, who is about to found the country, expects to enter history as the greatest emperor in history, so he attaches great importance to every move he makes.Zhu Yuanzhang believed: "The world knows the great ancestor's magnanimity, but he remembered the grievances of the fifth wife and named his son Gengjiehou...the measure has not been broad." That is to say, Liu Bang was magnanimous. It is worthless for a person who ruined his image because of this trivial matter.There is no small matter in the image of the emperor, the more dramatic the small matter, the more people talk about it.

Before leaving his hometown, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered people to buy food from outside, and asked the folks and elders to have a hearty meal.According to historical records, Zhu Yuanzhang delivered the following important speech to the folks at the banquet: "I have not seen each other for a long time. Now I am returning to my hometown. I am very sorry for the family who missed my father and died in the army. I am sorry for my failure to survive." Said: "The villagers farm and trade, and they are ordered not to go far. There are still bandits in the Binhuai counties, and they are afraid they will be plundered. The elders and others also love themselves, and they want to celebrate the New Year." Don't fight, don't live in peace. Now rely on the Lord's mighty virtue, everyone can rest in peace, and the Lord is worried."
